Somewhere in America, there was an emergency meeting of the Tiger Woods Non-Fan Club Sunday night. The president got up and threw out a question.

“Well, now what?”

Woods won again, which had to thrill millions of fans and NBC’s advertisers. But being Tiger, it also caused plenty of people to throw their Foot-Joys at the tube.

I don’t think this hate group is officially organized. If it is, it’s probably called something far more descriptive than the Tiger Anti-Fan Club. Whatever it goes by, Sunday’s result left members stammering.

It seems Tiger is b-b-ba…c…c….ck.

Finishing the word makes them cough like they’ve just inhaled a moth. But denying it makes them the sporting version of Birthers. Sunday’s win at the WGC Cadillac Championship was Woods’ second in four Tour events this year.

Forget the two-stroke victory margin. It was just like old times. A four-day beat-down of the best field golf can muster. Hence the question from the club president.

What will it take to stop the re-rise of Tiger?

Drones? Rory McIlroy switching back to Titleist clubs? Maybe the Tour will force him to use a 12-foot belly putter.

Miseries on the greens have caused much joy the past few years with the Anti-Tiger crowd. But Woods’s touch was coming around even before he got a tip from Steve Stricker before the tournament.

Dr. Stricker made a slight adjustment in Woods’ stance and posture. The golf hole suddenly expanded by a couple of inches.

“Thank you, Steve, for the putting lesson,” Woods said. “It was one of those weeks when I felt good about how I was playing.”

You would, too, if you had 24 birdies in the first three rounds. At one point Woods had 19 birdies in 38 holes. That’s the kind of stat that has the Anti-Tiger Club sensing the end of an era.

It’s been quite a hoot since Nov. 25, 2009. Instead of Pilgrims, members will forever be grateful for fire hydrants and cell phone records at Thanksgiving.

Most importantly, Woods’ great crash derailed his quest for golf’s Holy Grail: Jack Nicklaus’ record of 18 majors. He was just four away, but it seemed like 40 at times.

His life was a blur of knee injuries, divorce papers, caddy clashes, swing changes. Woods insisted he’d figure it out, but it sounded like he was just fooling himself.

He sunk to No. 58 in the world last year. The bottom came last year at Doral, when he swung from the rough and aggravated an Achilles injury on the 12th hole.

“I’m done,” he told playing partner Webb Simpson.

He limped to a golf cart and headed up Interstate 95 to his new $46 million bachelor pad. With TV helicopters giving chase, Woods' black Mercedes must have felt like O.J.’s white Ford Bronco. Would he ever escape the spiral?

Good or bad, it takes more than a couple of tournaments to make definitive declarations. Tiger hadn’t won a real tournament in almost 1,000 days. At that point, we could safely say Woods was not back.

But two weeks later, he won at Bay Hill for the seventh time. It was the start of an undeniable trend.

Woods won two more times last year. Now he has five wins in his past 19 starts. Two in the past four starts, not counting the Nassau he won with President Barack Obama.

The most symbolic moment came Sunday. Woods was back on the 12th hole. His second shot ended near the lip of a bunker, leaving him a stance from hell for his next one.

He spread his legs and planted his feet in the grass. The ball was low in the sand. From the super-slow-mo replays, Woods looked more like a weightlifter doing a clean-and-jerk than a golfer flopping a shot out of the bunker.

It was the Anti-Tiger Club’s best hope for a déjà vu, only Woods’ legs aren’t that fragile anymore. He missed the birdie putt, but it hardly mattered in the big trend of things.

He wasn't about to blow a five-shot lead on Sunday. And next up is Bay Hill, where he could win with a steering wheel wrapped around his neck.

If he wins that, he’ll be back to No. 1 in the world. There will be no denying he’s b-b-b…but wait!

For all the WGCs and Arnold Palmers he’s slurping up, Woods still hasn’t won a major since the 2008 U.S. Open. He threatened three times last year, but faded every weekend.

So there’s still that, Anti-Tiger fans. Mark your calendars for Augusta and hope he remains stuck at 14 majors. Though Nicklaus himself issued this warning.

“I still think he can do it,” the Golden Bear said. “But that said, he has still got to do it. He hasn’t won in five years. He had better get with it.”

He said that two weeks ago, before the latest evidence came in. If what happened at Doral still doesn’t convince the non-fans, that’s fine for now. Cling to whatever gives you comfort.

Tiger may not be totally, unequivocally, undeniably back. But he is definitely getting with it.
